    [02] PD expresses its further support for Vasile Cabinet

    The vicepresident of the ruling Democratic Party (PD), Cristian Radulescu said on Thursday his party expressed its further support for Vasile Cabibet as it kept its previous promises. The will of the voters in 1996 did not significantly change to motivate an eventual reconsideration of relations within the PD-CDR alliance, Mr Radulescu added. Referring to the elections for Bucharest City Hall, the PD leader said his party did not make any promise concerning its virtual support of the PDSR or CDR candidate. Mr Radulescu mentioned that the Party of Social Democracy in Romania (PDSR) might become the partner of the PD as soon as the opposition party would solve its interbal differences between reformers and state-ownership supporters. PD Vicepresident Traian Basescu said there was a need for both political and public debates over the cases of PD members concerning their alleged cooperation with the former Securitate services as stipulated in the Ticu Dumitrescu Law. The PD vicepresident believes that the law should be completed as soon as possible. RADOR

The Romanian president pointed out that such projects sopped Romania from being a "blank on the world map". The president said "it was in a professional way that Romania has learned to present its opportunities, and with quick results.
